Narcanazo: Community Activation of Antiracist Epidemiology.

The Latinx (Hispanic) social construct obscures differences in the overdose risk levels of groups within this category. When national data are disaggregated, stateside Puerto Rican mortality increases exponentially, so much that this community has the highest rates of overdose deaths across years. Developed by Bronx-based Puerto Ricans, Narcanazo is an empowered upstander campaign that uses local overdose data to mobilize community members as trained naloxone dispensers. This health promotion campaign was grounded in antiracist epidemiological analysis. (. 2024;114(S6):S463-S466. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307605) [Formula: see text].
